Movie Reviews of Lilies of the Field
Movie Review: Lillies of the Field -- a timeless classic
Summary: 5 Stars
This wonderful vintage movie has been part of my heritage "forever". Recently I encountered a person quite important to me who didn't realized that the "Amen" song, which has become a staple of celebration in the various communities of faith that I belong to, had been popularized by this film. Therefore I purchased the DVD to give it to him, and hope that it will become as enjoyable for him as it always was for me.Movie Review: One of the great Classics of the 20th Century
Summary: 5 Stars
It's real simple. If you haven't seen this movie, IT IS A MUST SEE! While it is now 40 years old, it's age does not detract in the least. It's about man's relationship with himself, with others, and his understanding of a greater purpose in life. If I were trying to make a good impression on an alien from another planet - with respect to humanity - I would show him this movie.Movie Review: A really good movie
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a classic, great movie. It's one that is watchable on a repeat basis. Low key but very meaningful. The movie is in black and white but that actually seems to add to it in the same way that the H. Bogart movies 'Casablanca' and 'Sahara' effectively use that medium.
The price is right. It's a keeper. Buy it and sit back and enjoy a great performance.
Movie Review: just like the first time
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this DVD as a gift for my son, to accompany Sidney Poitier's book "The Measure of a Man." I first saw "Lilies of the Field" when it was originally presented in theaters. (Am I dating myself?) It was just as good this time around. It was history in the making then; now it's a glimpse of history. Excellent quality--the DVD itself and the acting.Movie Review: good viewing of a good film
Summary: 5 Stars
Sidney Poitier gives a great performance as a man traveling about the country picking up odd jobs to survive. His chance meeting with a group of nuns and the story that follows is charming, funny and well worth the watching. I enjoyed this movie years ago and enjoyed it just as much more recently. Good story, good actors and worth viewing.
